IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

To reduce the risk of personal injury or property damage when using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1.READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE.

2.Do not touch hot surfaces! Always use hot pads or pot holders until unit cools.

3.To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse tray base, cord or plug in water or other liquid.

4.Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

5.Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool completely before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning

or storing the appliance.

6.Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to the Cadco Factory Service Department (call 860-738-2500 first) for examination, repair or adjustment. In Canada call (905) 825-9665.

7.The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.

8.Do not use outdoors.

9.Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces.

10.Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.

11.It is recommended that this appliance not be moved when it contains hot oil or other hot liquid.

12.Do not clean with metal scouring pads. They can scratch and ruin the finish of your unit.

13.Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

14.DO NOT USE PLASTIC DISHES OR PLASTIC WRAP ON TRAY .

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE: A short power supply cord (or cord set) has been provided to reduce the hazards resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer cord sets or extension cords may be used if care is properly exercised in their use. If a long cord set or extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

The high-tech warming surface will remain unblemished for a long time with appropriate care. The warming surface and high-grade, long-life stainless steam pans allow for an attractive alternative for keeping appetizers and other foods warm. For best results use nylon, plastic, wooden or rubber utensils. Metal utensils may be used with care but should not be used to cut food on the cooking surfaces.

Initial Use:

Heat the warming base without foods on it for approximately 10 minutes at maximum setting in order to seal the special coating. Temporary smoking is normal during initial use.

Subsequent Use:

1.The heating element is equipped with a variable thermostat knob. Heat range is from 1550 to 2050 F, to keep foods at serving temperatures. For best results, use maximum heat setting to quickly reach your desired temperature, then adjust to desired temperature.

2.The light will come on only during heat cycle. Due to the low wattage necessary for warming trays, it can be 20-30 minutes before the light cycles off.

3.You may use the unit either fully assembled with steam pans, (Figure A) or

use the warming base alone as a warming tray (Figure B).

4.If using steam pans, place the steam pan holder on the warming base before placing the steam pans in place.

5.The unit comes with three 2.6 quart (Models WTBS-3/3P) or two 4.3 quart (Models WTBS-2/2P) or four 4.3 quart (Models WTBS-4/4P) or three 2.6 quart & two 4.3 quart stainless steam pans. Each 2.6 quart steam pan will hold about 20 four ounce servings; the 4.3 quart pans each hold over 30 four ounce servings.

6.Food placed on warming base or in steam pans should be fully cooked and already hot. Buffet Servers are designed for keep-warm function only. To retain heat and moisture in foods, keep lids on chafing dishes when not serving.

7.Foods containing little or no liquid should be kept warm on Low setting, and stirred periodically.

8.If using the unit as a regular warming tray without the steam pans, be sure to use containers that are heatproof. Note: The base is not designed to keep large, deep pots full of food or liquid warm.
